Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave in a well preserved body but rather to slide in sideways totally worn out, shouting Holy Crap, what a ride! Now to just convince Doodlebug of this!

14.45 Inches

Is the amount of rain we have received in Georgia since January 1st! The past three days have been filled with rain, dreariness, and cold... which may explain why this post is yet again about recipes that Doodle and I tried. I must admit, I am becoming a fan of these Southern Living cookbooks but wonder at the amount of fat and butter I am now consuming.

Sunday night, Doodle and I made Beef Tenderloin with Bourbon Mushroom Sauce and Corn-Cheese Spoonbread. The Bourbon Mushroom Sauce was excellent and Doodle really loved the tenderloin. But in my opinion, the star of the dinner was the Spoonbread. When we started out, neither Doodle or I had heard of Spoonbread but we certainly will be making it again and again and again!
